The framework agreement has the option to extend for up to a further 24 months. The total estimated value stated includes the option period.

Throughout the duration of the framework, ESPO shall monitor the Supplier's financial standing against the Suppliers initial financial positioning on the commencement date of the framework. If a Suppliers financial standing falls below the position recorded on the commencement date, ESPO will raise this with Suppliers and discuss the circumstances round this.

MI (Management information) for the framework will be collected on a quarterly basis by the Contract Support Officer (CSO). The CSO will also maintain checks to ensure that any relevant insurances continued to be held.

Social Value will be assessed and monitored by the framework manager. Suppliers will be expected to demonstrate social value initiatives throughout the lifetime of the framework.
